I really can't control myself.

Chapter 4181 Preparation
"We must find a way to protect ourselves." The speaker was Eizan Etsuya.

Now, as a competent businessman, he has a good understanding of how society actually works.

He knew very well what enabled him to stand at this height. Ultimately, it was Linton's side as his invisible backer.

He wanted to say it was because of his own abilities, but the reality is that ability alone isn't enough; luck also plays a role. Linton was, in fact, his "luck," and thus his true benefactor. How many people sided with Linton simply to curry favor with him?

Now that he knows Linton is leaving, it's clear that there's considerable danger involved.

That's right, Matsumoto Yoshishi just came to ask Eizan Etsuya about the future, since the two sides are now in full cooperation and their companies are deeply intertwined.

Linton has informed him that he's been fired and will no longer be working with them on filming projects. Matsumoto Yoshishi is quite lost and unsure what to do. Just then, he runs into Eizan Etsuya, who's come to discuss work with him, and tells him about Linton's departure, asking what will happen to their company and what he should do.

As a result, Eizan Etsu also reacted strongly, saying that they were now in great danger, and that not only the company, but the two of them might also be in trouble.

Yoshishi Matsumoto clearly hadn't figured out what it meant yet, but Eizan Etsu patiently explained it to him.

One of the key factors is the opposite part.

Indeed, the Foreign Affairs Department is now an official organization, and their intention to control the situation is quite obvious.

The reason they are so constrained right now is, of course, because of Linton's existence; they have absolutely no way to deal with Linton.

But what if Linton leaves? Then the Foreign Affairs Department obviously won't be so lenient anymore.

They will definitely keep what they can control, such as their current company, or even themselves.

You ask what's the use of these two people's companies? You should know that their current company is the most famous live streaming multimedia company in Japan, or even the world.

Live streaming has evolved beyond just broadcasting. Since Yūnori Takaoka developed the ability to use emotional energy as a resource for spiritual practice, live streaming has clearly acquired a certain resource-based positioning. How could he not control the world's most famous live streaming company?

Therefore, if Linton were no longer a threat, Eizan Etsu was almost certain that the Anti-Corruption Department would take action against them. Taking over the company would be relatively lenient; what's more frightening is the possibility that they might possess some items given to them by Linton, and they might try to force them to hand them over. This is clearly not impossible, right?

However, Eizan Etsuya immediately thought of two pieces of news that would be beneficial to them.

The first problem is that, apart from a few people, no one else knows that Linton is leaving.

Currently, only Matsumoto Yoshishi and Saiba Asahi, who was present at the time, originally knew about this. And now, the only person Matsumoto Yoshishi has told is himself, but Saiba Asahi is currently unaware. The second advantageous aspect is… the method of cultivating emotional energy has not yet been fully disclosed.

That's right, didn't Takaoka Yūnée want to reveal this method before? He actually revealed part of it during his live stream, explaining the training method on the show. However, he explained it so poorly that nobody learned it.

When he tried to explain in detail, he was interrupted by Ozaki Naomichi, who suddenly appeared, and he was unable to give a complete explanation until the end of the live stream.

As a result, no one knows how to do it now. Many people are still copying the more general parts of the live broadcast that Takaoka Yūnen talked about, hoping to understand the training method.

However, so far, I haven't heard of anyone who has comprehended it on their own, probably because they didn't have the same training environment as Takaoka Yūnori.

Many people on live streaming platforms now claim to be broadcasting about cultivation methods. At first, some people believed them, but it was quickly discovered that many were just bluffing. They probably want to create a cultivation environment similar to that of Takaoka Uson, where a large number of people watch and provide a massive amount of emotional value, allowing them to comprehend the cultivation method on their own.

But viewers won't be fooled forever. Once a large number of such people appear, it becomes clear that everyone understands their intentions. The result is that nobody watches, and nobody benefits.

If things continue like this, eventually someone should be able to make it work; currently, it just lacks the right environment and time.

As for your question about where Takaoka Yūnō is now, and whether he's dead or not...

Most viewers actually thought that these people were dead, because the last scene of the live broadcast was a huge explosion at the location where Takaoka Yūnée was. Those watching the other side of the broadcast knew that it was Linton's side blowing up the mountain, which accidentally injured Takaoka Yūnée and his group.

The area is now riddled with craters from the explosion, and Takaoka Yuzuru and his group are obviously nowhere to be found. Therefore, most netizens believe that the group was blown to bits, and no one is concerned about whether the matter should be made public or not.

However, Eizan Etsuya knew that Takaoka Yūnori was not dead.

That's right, several members of Takaoka Yuzuru's group survived and are currently recovering from their injuries. And the person who helped them was none other than Eizan Etsuya.

As a trusted brother of Takaoka Yuten, the first person Takaoka Yuten contacted after escaping was Eizan Etsuya, naturally asking Eizan Etsuya to rescue people.

At that time, Takaoka Yuzuru and his group were all seriously injured and unable to move. He couldn't just call an ambulance, so the first person he naturally thought of was Eizan Etsuya, whom he trusted.

As expected, Eizan Etsu lived up to expectations and quickly rescued the person. However, among this group, some were injured and others were crippled. Surprisingly, He Xin Changping was in the best condition; his injuries were the least severe, and he has now fully recovered.

As for Takaoka Yūnori himself, he is still in a coma. It's unclear whether he has entered a vegetative state, but he is definitely not going to wake up.

Originally, Eizan Etsuya had only saved the person because of a friend, but now he suddenly realized that he felt like he was holding a trump card.
